What is the downtime?
One of the great things about micro-needling is the “minimal” down time involved. Immediately following the treatment, your skin will have a red or rosy tone to it. The redness will diminish within the first 24-60 hours. 48 hours after the treatment, you can apply makeup to cover any residual redness that remains. While your skin will feel dry, days 3-5 are when most experience a slight “flaking” of their skin. Any flaking can be relieved with moisturizer.
How many treatments will I need?
It is recommended for most patients to receive a series of 3 treatments spaced about 4 weeks apart for optimal results. For patients with deep wrinkles, advanced photo-aging, stretch marks or acne scars it is recommended to receive 6 or more treatments. It is also recommended to do a treatment once per year to maintain results.
Before Treatment:
3 Days before treatment: Avoid using topical products such as Tretinoin, Retinol, or Retinoids. Refrain from waxing, bleaching, or plucking the area to be treated. Refrain from using over-the-counter blood-thinning medications such as anti-inflammatories (e.g., Ibuprofen, Mypaid), Aspirin, Vitamin E, Ginkgo Biloba, St. John’s Wort, and Omega-3 Fatty Acids.
1 Day before treatment: Avoid consuming alcohol 24 hours before and after the treatment.
How long before I can wear makeup or sunscreen?
You need to wait at least 48 to 72hours before any makeup products. Sunscreen can be applied to the skin after the first 48 hours. This temporary ban on makeup even applies to a tinted moisturizers or tinted sunscreens. While your skin must remain hydrated after your treatment, it’s not advisable to use any products made from pigmented minerals for the sake of not irritating your skin.
MICRO-NEEDLING WITH PRP
What is PRP?
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) comes from your blood and is plasma where the concentration of platelets is higher than that of other components of the blood. PRP contains proteins, including growth factors that help skin tissue repair itself. A blood sample is taken from you, then spun in a centrifuge to separate the PRP from the rest of the blood. The PRP is applied topically during micro-needling treatment.
How is Micro-needling and PRP combo use?
When PRP is used in conjunction with micro-needling, the treatment delivers the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to the deepest layers of the skin. PRP uses stem cell science to enhance healing through its high concentration of growth factors in turn stimulates the growth of new, healthy skin cells which help smooth skin and scar tissue over time.
